Function | Helicase that plays an essential role in mRNA export and is involved in multiple steps in RNA metabolism including alternative splicing (PubMed:33941617, PubMed:38801080). Regulates nuclear mRNA export to the cytoplasm through association with ECD (PubMed:33941617). Also involved in spliceosomal uridine-rich small nuclear RNA (U snRNA) export by stimulating the RNA binding of adapter PHAX (PubMed:39011894). Plays a role in the negative regulation of type I IFN production by increasing the nuclear retention of antiviral transcripts and thus reducing their protein expression (PubMed:32393512). Independently of the interferon pathway, plays an antiviral role against alphaviruses by binding to a 5' conserved sequence element in the viral genomic RNA (PubMed:37949067). |
Cellular Location | Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Note=Can translocate to the cytoplasm in the presence of MX1 (PubMed:21859714). Accumulates in the cytoplasm upon infection with chikungunya virus (PubMed:37949067) |
Tissue Location | Detected in testis, and at lower levels in brain, kidney, lung, thymus, spleen and salivary gland |

Background
DDX39 is a member of the DEAD box protein family. These proteins are characterized by the conserved motif Asp-Glu-Ala-Asp (DEAD) and are putative RNA helicases. They are implicated in a number of cellular processes involving alteration of RNA secondary structure, such as translation initiation, nuclear and mitochondrial splicing, and ribosome and spliceosome assembly. Based on their distribution patterns, some members of the DEAD box protein family are believed to be involved in embryogenesis, spermatogenesis, and cellular growth and division.
